I know exactly what you mean. Its because the temperature goes up in 1/10ths of a degree but it gets very annoying when it goes between 3.9c and 4.1 and back to 3.9c. I was told they could turn it off but they would have to charge me for plugging the computer in. Must speak to them next time the van goes in!

Funny you should say that - must be the time of year! I just mentioned it in the Diary:

viewtopic.php?p=484338#p484338

However, I have to say that the Ordinary Van has been so ordinary that it's the only thing I've got to complain about! Interesting to hear that there is a software fix, though.

Unplug a few connectors in the engine & run it then re-connect & report intermittent hesitation after an hours running - they will to do an update under warranty then :!:
